I'll [C]just set back and [G]watch you while you [D7]shed those bitter [G]tears

[G]Tears falling [C]down your pretty [G]cheeks

Tears you cannot hide and [A7]tears you cannot [D7]keep

[G]They are tears of sorrow and [C]tears of de[G]light

I wish I had a nickel for every [D7]tear you shed last [G]night

They tell me little darlingThat tomorrow you'll be wed

You thought that you would hurt meBut you hurt yourself instead

I'll always be the same old palJust as in years gone byI'll just set back and watch youWhile you set alone and cry

Tears falling down your pretty cheeks Tears you cannot hide and tears you cannot keep They are tears of sorrow and tears of delight I wish I had a nickel for every tear you shed last night

I just dropped by to tell you that I wish you happinessI hope that you'll forgive me for intruding like thisI hope my dear your happiness will follow through the yearsI'll just set back and watch you while you shed those bitter tears

Tears falling down your pretty cheeks Tears you cannot hide and tears you cannot keep They are tears of sorrow and tears of delight I wish I had a nickel for every tear you shed last night
